NISSAN SERENA rattle

[texol]

Coming from the front end, especially when i am at low speed and going over even the mildest rough roads it seems to be worse. I had the brakes checked out about 6 months ago when the peoblem first started and they were fine it is gradually getting worse, you can also feel it slightly when braking, does anyone have any ideas?

check heat sheilds on exhaust they sometimes cause a rattle

hi texol as well as checking exhaust heat shields as ditchy say's also check that the brackets that hold the front anti roll bar to the front crossmember have not become lose or fallen of.

yes when i worked in a garage the japanese motors were notorious for heat shields coming loose and rattling

I have a feeling it could be the bushes on the anti roll bar, but im not sure. I had a new exhast center section fitted last month and they checked the full system for me, it dosent sound like an exhaust rattle anyway, but thanks guys.

did you get to the bottom of the rattle? I have the same problem

[texol]

I have had the brakes checked and have been told its just something that serenas do, mine is twelve years old this year and i have been running it with the rattle for over a year so im saying if it aint broke dont fix it, it passed mot no probs so im not worried just yet.
